The only time we've seen this is with Apple's X11, if I had to guess I'd say it was an Apple X11 bug.
Does it fix itself if you click on the X11 icon in the dock?
No it does not fix itself by clicking and making X current. Does X have to be current or shouldn't KDE be made current?
Sometimes it gets confused about focus if it's not brought to the front explicitly...
Hmmm, I wonder if you have something here. Now that I think about another symptom.
I am starting to think that "Focus" may be the problem.
I set X to do Full Screen this time so I could get a better appreciation of my problem.
From the X "xterm" I enter "/sw/bin/startkde &"
KDE starts up, ok so far.
1. Now, with KDE up, all my OS X icons have taken on the KDE type icons. For clarity, when X is Full Screen, I do not see my OS X icons. Only when KDE is up.
2. By clicking on certain things in KDE, I can bring up Konqueror or some other KDE window,
3. Now the interesting symptom;
If I dbl click in any KDE window that is up, and if there happens to be an OS X icon underneath the KDE window, say a ".txt" file, that file will get displayed in
KDE.
Item 3 above suggests to me that this may be the "Focus" problem you have eluded to.
Clicking on anything in the KDE dock does nothing. Clicking on anything on the "Hints Window" does nothing to Close it. I can not remember what I clicked on to bring up a Konqueror (spelling) window but it was NOT by clicking on anything on he KDE dock! I wonder if I had clicked on an OS X icon that brought up Konqueror. I dunno ! Oh yes, if a KDE window is up, each time I do a "Command Tab" I am able to change the highlighting from clickable item (button) to the next
next clickable button..
Ok, now what? :-) I am bound and determined to get KDE to function properly.
Why should I have this problem, when most others do not. Hmmm...... I did say I was running OS X 3.3 but forgot to be more specific.
I am running OS X "S" v 3.3 (server). Dunno if that makes a difference.
Ok, you have it all. Until I think of something else. :-) Al
